v2.7.2.windows.1
Git for Windows v2.7.2 Changes since Git for Windows v2.7.1(2) (February 12th 2016) New Features • Git for Windows' SDK version 1.0.2 has been released. • The "list references" window of gitk is now wider by default. • Comes with Git 2.7.2. Bug Fixes • The user is now presented with a nice error message when calling node while node.exe is not in the PATH (this bug also affected other interactive console programs such as python and php). • The arrow keys are respected again in gitk. • When a too-long path is encountered, git clean -dfx no longer aborts quietly. • Git GUI learned to stage lines appended to a single-line file. • When launching C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash -l -i in a cmd window and pressing Ctrl+C, the console is no longer corrupted (previously, the bash.exe redirector would terminate and both cmd & Bash would compete for user input). -

Git for Windows v2.7.1(2) Changes since Git for Windows v2.7.1 (February 6th 2016) New Features • The context menu items in the explorer now show icons. Bug Fixes • A bug was fixed where worktrees would forget their location e.g. after an interactive rebase. • Thanks to Eric Lawrence and Martijn Laan, our installer sports a better way to look for system files now. -
v2.7.1.windows.1
Git for Windows v2.7.1 Changes since Git for Windows v2.7.0(2) (February 2nd 2016) New Features • Comes with Git 2.7.1. Bug Fixes • Git GUI now starts properly even when the working directory contains non-ASCII characters. • We forgot to enable Address Space Layout Randomization and Data Execution Prevention on our Git wrapper, and this is now fixed. • A bug in one of the DLLs used by Git for Windows was fixed that prevented Git from working properly in 64-bit setups where the FLG_LDR_TOP_DOWN global flag is set. -
v2.7.0.windows.2
Git for Windows v2.7.0(2) Changes since Git for Windows v2.7.0 (January 5th 2016) New Features • To stave off exploits, Git for Windows now uses Address Space Layout Randomization (ASLR) and Data Execution Prevention (DEP). • Git for Windows' support for git pull --rebase=interactive that was dropped when the pull command was rewritten in C, was resurrected. • The installers are now dual signed with SHA-2 and SHA-1 certificates. • The uninstaller is signed now, too. Bug Fixes • When installing as administrator, we no longer offer the option to install quiicklaunch icons because quicklaunch icons can only be installed per-user. • If a ~/.bashrc is detected without a ~/.bash_profile, the generated file will now also source ~/.profile if that exists. • The environment variable HOME can now be used to set the home directory even when running with accounts that are part of a different domain than the current (non-domain-joined) machine (in which case the MSys2 runtime has no way to emulate POSIX-style UIDs). • Git can now fetch and push via HTTPS even when the http.sslCAInfo config variable was unset. • Git for Windows is now handling the case gracefully where the current user has no permission to list the parent of the current directory. • More file locking issues ("Unlink of file ... failed. Should I try again?") were fixed. -
